Cardi B's Visionary Stylist Wanted Her Nostalgic "Up" Video Style to be "Hood Yet High Fashion"

It wouldn't be a Cardi B music video without incredible outfits. The singer puts her trust in Kollin Carter to dream up bigger and bolder styles each time she releases a new track or steps out on the red carpet, and the sexy "Up" video is no exception. When the clip premiered on Feb. 5, fans immediately started buzzing about the looks, and Kollin recently shared a few fun details on his Instagram.

Kollin called out a specific moment from the music video, where Cardi wears a cone bra and spray painted sneakers. "This look by @fashionbyreyortiz was special!" Kollin wrote. "We wanted to create a HOOD yet High Fashion moment! We used elements from Jean Paul Gaultier's iconic 1984 ruched cone boobs mixed with an early 2000's Juicy couture aesthetic! Remember when sneakers heels were the thing then?"

He included videos and photos of the sneaker creation process as well. "I had the amazing @berkvisual take my favorite @maisonmargiela x @reebok collab and paint some super dope graphics with lyrics from "UP" on them!" Kollin explained. "Topped off the look with velour scrunches in the hair and went overboard with multiple stacked gold @jenniferfisherjewelry bangles. The background dancers were wearing custom ruched @sirbabajagne halter neck, booty short bodies suits, and @reebok sky high sneakers also customized by @berkvisual." What an outfit!

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
